Hafeez praised the quartet's selection but says “we are a fast bowler short.”

Pakistan has played just six Tests over the last year - three each against England and Sri Lanka - with a break of nearly six months between the two series.

Hafeez says the Pakistan Cricket Board needs to slot in more test matches to find quality cricketers like Azhar Ali and Asad Shafiq, who have established themselves in Pakistan's middle-order. – Sapa-AP
